Summer this year has us all sweltering, and if you’re anything like us, you’re desperate for a way to cool down. So we’ve put together THE ultimate, healthy, Ombar chocolate milkshake recipe! A thick, cold, chocolatey shake topped with rich, chocolate, vegan nice cream. We can’t think of a more delicious way to enjoy the summer. And to top it all off, this milkshake is healthy, vegan, refined sugar-free and gluten-free! Hurrah!

We’ve separated the recipe for the milkshake and the nice cream. But if you want to make both together for the ultimate milkshake experience, we recommend freezing all the bananas and melting all the chocolate for both the milkshake and nice cream in one go, to save you time. Then when you’ve made both elements, pour the milkshake into a glass and top with a ball of nice cream. Deeeelish!

For the Milkshake

Ingredients:

2 bananas

2 tbsp of almond butter

2 cups of coconut milk

Coco Mylk Ombar (1 large 70g bar)

1 cup of blueberries

1 tbsp of seeds (of your choice) or seed meal

Instructions:

First slice the bananas. Then pop the sliced banana and your blueberries in the freezer for at least 2 hours.

Meanwhile, break your Ombar into segments and melt over a gently simmering bain-marie. Make sure you stir the chocolate whilst it’s melting to avoid it burning to the pan.

Quickly whiz your seeds in the blender until they are the consistency of a fine meal and set to one side.

Once the sliced bananas are frozen put them in the blender and blend until smooth.
